Drosophyllum
 

Thought I would share a few photo's of my Drosophyllum that has just started flowering. Very happy with it's growth so far. It seems o enjoy it's location.

and the sky looks very blue..my gues is that it hasnt rain quiet awhile there?

Re: Drosophyllum
 

The pot is about 25cm across. The flowers are 1-2 inches wide. It hasn't rained for almost a week. We had floods prior to that. It was about 40 Celsius yesterday.

will it have seeds?
i heard that Drosophyllum can grow in nutrient media.is that true?

Re: Drosophyllum
 

I am hopeing to get some seeds but I will have to wait and see. Not sure about nutrients in the media. I haven't heard about that. They do grow in very dry soil. Mine is in a mix of peat moss, 20mm rock, sand and perlite. They are sensitive to overwatering.
